Avatar f tn I began to have stomach aches and gurgling. This quickly turned into severe diarrhea, cramping and bloating. I went to see a doctor in PA, where I was visiting. Doctor gave me Flaygl and Cirpo which made me even more sick. I experienced all the terrible side effects of these drugs from dizziness and confusion, to diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, head aches- the full works. I took the Flagyl first- when I came off of it I felt just OK for a few days, then all my original symptoms came right back.
Avatar n tn I'm a 54 year old male and have had similar experience with both doxycycline and cipro. The first time I had a prostititis attack cipro didn't work and doxycycline helped me after 2 full weeks. 18 months later I'm having another bout, this time its the other way around - Doxycycline didn't help and cipro seems to be working after 2 weeks. Are you taking Flomax too? My prostititis problems seemed to start when I went on Flomax.

Avatar m tn Cipro is a fluoroqinalone, and is not the best choice for an intestinal infection. Ordinary over-the-counter pepto bismal would have been more appropriate. Bismuth is a powerful bactricidal agent. Cipro has many side effects and was not an appropriate. In Mexico, what is labled "Cipro" could be anything from powdered dog dung to flour and insecticide.
Avatar n tn talk to your doc for probiotic. its very effective dear.

1580703 tn?1651904887 I travelled to Indonesia and soon became sick with an infection, migraine, fever, diarrhea, nausea and was treated with cipro. 1 month after returning to the US I began to have chronic fatigue, sleep apnea, asthma, wheezing and I've been tired for over a year. I had high blood sugar but it has been normal now for a few weeks on medication. I had an IGE that was about 145 and low IGG subset 3, high WBC, normal EOS%.
Avatar m tn 498-502). The Journal of Infectious diseases (Jan 2011) recommends Cipro as an alternative to intravenous medications (Vancomyacin) for treatment of osteomyelitis. Oral medications are a problem when treating infections of the extremities. If you take yogurt the therapeutic levels in the toe and foot will become non-existant and may result in an out-of-control infection, and amputation of the toes, foot, leg and possibly endocarditis, resulting in a heart valve replacement. Not a happy ending.
Avatar m tn I went to the emergency room for diarrhea and vomitting. They gave me ciprofloxacin for an antibiotic and I had never taken it before. When I took the 3rd dose (500mg per dose), I had the worst diarrhea ever so I decided to stop the antibiotics. At the 7 day, my diarrhea returned and I took ultra carbon but it didn't work. So far, I had never taken any probiotics. Any advice?

Avatar f tn My partner was given Cipro for UTI, Suprax and Zithromax he started the Cipro last Thursday and when positive results came back yesterday started the other two meds, his symptoms were gone before starting the Zithromax and Suprax, I had no symptoms. My question is what is the percent of reinfection if we have sex over the weekend. My doctor said normally Gonnorhea is non infectious after 24hrs of treatment and Clamydia is 1 or 2 days. Is that correct?
Avatar m tn After about 3 days on Cipro I had a bad sore throat and diarrhea, sore throat went away in 2-3 days and my doctor attributed diarrhea to Cipro. I continued Cipro for 2 weeks and the diarrhea improved after I stopped cipro. After about 15 days of stopping cipro (7 weeks from likely exposure), I started getting skin rash. This skin rash is slightly itchy in small patches over shoulders, trunk, arms and are small patches. They disappear in few hours and may reappear elsewhere.
Avatar f tn The MD prescribed Cipro for 10 days, and my diarrhea worsened. After I finished Cipro, the diarrhea continued. Finally I was sent for a CT Scan with contrast on my abdomen and pelvic area. MD said everything looked good except for some small pockets(diverticuli) which I already knew I had. He referred me to a GI doctor but I can't get in for 3 weeks. He gave me a prescription for lomotil, which helps with Diarrhea, but only if I take 2 ea. 4 times daily.

Avatar m tn Three days after returning, I developed diarrhea and a fever of around 100 F. The following day, I also added a stiff neck and headaches, especially if I moved my head too quickly.

The symptoms returned, but much more severe the next day and I went to the ER.

535822 tn?1443976780 About 3-4 weeks ago, I started having symptoms resembling a stomach bug (diarrhea) and fatigue for a couple of days, then started having flank pain. Went to urgen care and they gave me 3 days worth of cipro. She said I had a "few" white blood cells in my urine, but that was all. She also ordered a CT scan. After about a week, I started feeling better and was able to return to school and work. A couple of days later my fever started spiking up to 102.8.
